you know this was interesting Despite how overpowered Dr. Manhattan is He can’t undo the story of Superman I think that honestly deserves a video of its own but that’s me anyway great video as always.
It would make no sense for writers to do that from a story perspective. They would just be destroying decades of lore that could otherwise be taken advantage of. The fact the Dr. Manhattan can't this doesn't really say anything about the power of Dr. Manhattan at all. It simply wouldn't be a smart way of utilizing the character of Dr. Manhattan (if you must use him at all).
The Story of Superman as a power source does deserve it's own video, it has some incredibly high end feats and is consistently shown to just be bonkers.
Myx could directly effect Superman Dr. Manhattan didn't perhaps because Myx placed 5th dimension within Superman on several occasions. The fact myx did all much more and resides in other dimensions and wasn't human like Dr Manhattan
@@theswordslay3542 Yeah but your forgetting he's a trickster a troll. He rarely takes credit anyways. No one knows he was putting that on superman filmdon't that knew
@@theswordslay3542 don't forget that Lex Luthor stated that Dr. Manhattan was the most powerful being he has ever encountered in Doomsday Clock #11. Coming from Lex that is a statement.
When they say it "removed his intrinsic field" i think what they're talking about is removing or disabling one of two forces that keep atoms together, the electromagnetic force or the strong force. Removing even one of these would be disastrous.
@G-Squad49 he couldn't even figure out a green lantern ring bro dumbass. Highfather got his hands on one and collected to rest to get the life equation. Life Equation>Doctor Manhattan . That makes Guardians of the Universe and Highfather Smarter then him, and when characters are on this high on comic power levels being smarter is worth way more then being stronger because they can figure out how to get stronger.
Bro, Manhattan broked all of White Lantern Rings. Mxy, the one who holded hyperse (millions of multiverse) in bare hands, left the DCU in fear of Manhattan. Wally said Metron is even more powerful than Darkseid and Manhattan literally one-shotted him. He killed the *immortal* Pandora. He created basically a Universe. Created the New 52 timeline. Created oxygen on Mars. He is potentially Omniscient, -be a genius- He was pretty overrated until that feats come. Done.
Anti-Monitor or Spectre now. U know just hype from Crisis from CW makes me wondering how powerful are in comics. In show Mobius is already at very least 2-A but curious now about Anti-monitor
3:54 I didn't read Before Watchmen, but this sounds like a *really* bad retcon. Dr. Manhattan was originally omniscient and omnipotent but also part of a pre-determined universe. This made Dr. Manhattan paradoxical and incomprehensible in an interesting way. The retcon, as I understand it from this video, tosses out the ambiguity and replaces it with mere technobabble about Dr. Manhattan "choosing to give up free will" to avoid "destabilizing the universe". This makes Dr. Manhattan just a guy with superpowers and some hand-waving about their limits.
Manhattan was absolutely never even remotely portrayed as omniscient or omnipotent (I literally have no idea how you could possibly see him as omnipotent). He is a relatively powerful but incredibly flawed individual with limited prescience who is losing touch with his humanity and morals because he doesn't view the world as a human anymore. A huge part of his character is this fatalistic mindset that he can't change things but in the original Watchmen this is never once explained a single time. It actually gets contradicted a bunch of times. Before Watchmen fixes all of the inconsistencies and actually gives him character development by explaining why he has this fatalistic personality at all as well as giving him an incredibly profound and meaningful choice to make. Either give up on free will or live in a jumble of infinite indeterminate alternate and unstable realities. It ends on this extremely powerful fatalistic situation where despite all his power Manhattan has lost the power to choose, perfectly explaining his character throughout watchmen. Before Watchmen: Doctor Manhattan is a stunningly well written comic series that honestly does a far better job at developing his character than anything in Watchmen or Doomsday clock did.
@@WebCamParrot It's been some years since I last read Watchmen, so maybe I'm filling in blanks in my recollection with head canon, but my read on his fatalism wasn't that it was an inexplicable flaw, but rather a genuinely accurate understanding of how the Watchmen universe works. My read on the apparent inconsistencies and limits to his power (tachyons, openness to persuasion) was that it's simply necessary to maintain some ambiguity and also to take some narrative slack around a character like Dr. Manhattan in order to tell a story and because certain questions about him shouldn't/can't be answered without changing the nature of the story. For example, "Are Dr. Manhattan's human qualities due to some genuine lingering humanity or is this just his pre-destined behavior merely simulating human emotions? Is there even a difference?" Perhaps "retcon" was too strong a word since it might not be a direct contradiction, but it sounds like a fairly different direction.
when Dr. M said "scraps of creation" I assumed he meant the totality of creation as in the impetus of the DC multiverse. it could be said that if the multiverse was represented as an estate with the main mansion and various side houses/cottages the shadowlands would be the Storeroom/warehouse in the shadow of those forefront buildings housing what has to be hidden, the perceived unwanted and unneeded, I say this because of the interactions between wonder woman and the upside-down man. could have just been a faux pas though
Let's take into account that Manhattan is a product of Super Science, an analytical intelligence who spends his existence dissecting things and comes to conclusions based well on the scientific process, so he's going to come to some bullshit conclusion to deconstruct magic. Cause if you don't believe in magic, your gonna end up with no magic.
@@marksalmoneussorcerersupreme but his state of being is beyond limitions of belief he was only limited by existence and his ego ie he simply was until he decided to not be. He did use the Magic's energy against the more well verses and endowed practitioners in DC I would say he manipulates platonic/primordial energies.
@@marksalmoneussorcerersupreme I think it was some thing like before we knew the existence of elemental gases we simply left them under the umbrella air.
scraps of creation can be comapred to coding a program, there's a strings of command with a sentences of words and signs just to execute one task, but if you can make that one task efficiently like just typing a few words then you'll pick the latter and dump the former. that sentences of words and signs is considered scraps, an random knots that needs some entanglement and re-arrange to be an efficient command, thus what he did to all the powers they threw at him, entangle it, re-arrange it, refine it, and throw it back at them
So, once a group of friends and I were playing this game called Superfight, (Basically, two people pick a character card from their hand and attach modifiers like "there's ten of them" or "is 50 feet tall", and each person makes their argument why their guy would win in a fight with the other one, doing their best to sway the rest of the players who ultimately decide the winner. overselling stuff/downplaying the other character is encouraged, you DO EVERYTHING you can to sway the masses.) With that context established, my friend had a card that said "pick any comic book character" and he chose Dr. Manhattan. I went with Mr. Rogers, AND I WON! (I convinced the table that Mr. Rogers would kindness him into submission, and also pointed out that Mr. Rogers was the victor of the ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny.) I didn't really think Mr. Rogers would beat him, given the whole "lost humanity" thing, but that's how you play the game. My friend is still salty, and honestly rightfully so.
Wonderful video! I had previously been considering Manhatten barely universal, but this video has really changed my position on the matter. As for the video on "DC's most underrated characters" - I'd really like to see that, even if only to see if I even recognize anyone in it. In addition, a video that I'd really like to see would be a video on the various different reboots of DC - Crisis on Infinite Earths, Zero Hour, Flashpoint (N52), Rebirth, etc. You've been really good at explaining things that I previously had difficulty understanding, so it would really be useful for me, given how I've recently been reading some Tim Drake stories and have gotten confused as to how Titans Tomorrow Tim came back, how Impulse remembers things, and how Conner got back. Basically I just like Young Justice and a whole "Crisis" video seemed like the least direct way to ask for information on them. /ramble over Anyways, awesome video, and I hope to see more like it!
Do you think Manhatten was always this strong or that he grew stronger after he starting roaming the multiverse? He did seem to get stronger during the fight with the Justice League by analyzing their powers.
I personally think he's still learning the extent of his powers, like it something brought him to the place of the monitors, 4,5th dimension or the overviod knowledge of his ability would continue to expand as would his feats. Being in the original watchmen comic he would have no point being outerversal but I think if he's placed in those kind of environments he would be able to adjust quite nicely.
I guess I will be one of those comments saying 'I dont know anything or much about the topic, but I am enjoying it'.. 3rd or so video I came across, randomly too.
I'm putting this comment here particularly so that a comment Noodles planned to put here won't end up being near the top, essentially adding on to what continues to bury it, so don't give Noodles' comment many likes.
He could. But Dr Manhattan isnt like that. You cant fight Dr Manhattan through sheer force. Hes just too powerful. But you can change his mind or logically maneuver him. He's not all knowing (but pretty close) or all-powerful (well pretty close) Hes just bored. He wants to make things better with his power, but people have free will and the sad truth is that shitty people will always make shitty choices. Making things better will never be permanent because there will always be unbalanced/evil people who want to take what isnt theirs or do what they want to others. Superman represents the constant will to make things better by constantly fighting whats wrong. Thats why hes a boy scout hero. Hes the ideal/hope that humanity strives to be better. Dr Manhattan doesnt inspire or give people a hope. Hes just a being with so much knowledge and power that he doesnt really care
Good video, I love the overpowered dead-pan blue man. Although, I do have to ask: Are there really people out there who take Dr. Manhattan's "scraps of creation" Statement seriously? I mean, the entire Doomsday Clock story-line is basically him learning about the multiverse, so he wouldn't know anything about the origins of magic in DC. Are there people who really think it's official just because John said so?
I've seen people use it as an argument before, but that's probably because they haven't read the other comic lines that contradict the statement like JLD.
@@WebCamParrot I see ... some people. SMH Anyway, thanks for taking the time to respond, I know you're really busy these days so it means a lot. Take care, man. 👍
Following up on my comment: "Dumb people of course" I'd say that as a nigh omnipotent Quantum physicist that's how he interprets what people call Magic, because it's everything is energy to him, Energy is what he can wrap his head around, there's no Faith or Belief or Spirituality to it. And Energy he can manipulate on a Multiverse level.
Oh yeah because Pralaya is the Empty of the Presence. And she say and stated The Presence even God himself -- must inevitably fall. When she was talking about The Call me the darkness -- that precedes the light of creation. The sleep into which all beings and things. Then she say even God himself must inevitably fall..so powerful
*Superman couldn't even be moved or distorted by Dr manhattan in Orion comics he also couldn't erase superman in doomsday clock ( It shows you how powerful superman actually is plus superman overpowered the ARC angel Zauriel*

In death metal we saw how insanely powerful he really is U need to update this video The dark knights series gave a whole another level of scalling for manhattan
I wouldn't say that tachyons "travel backwards in time". No idea why Manhattan would say that, either. Tachyons are hypothetical particles that travel faster than the speed of light, and are unable to travel slower than it. Due to relativity and causality this would result in a form of time-travel, but not in the way he's phrasing it. Also, if he can reconstitute himself any way he pleases, why is he blue? Is that just his favourite colour?
The more powerful the character, the weirder their stories. Some of the best comic book character are those how have the least amount of power with the hardest road to walk and highest mountains to climb. I always found Doctor Manhanttan very boring, he is more of an aspect of the Watchman story that a character itself.
So Dr. Manhattan didn't know why his knowledge of the future just goes away at a certain point, even though he should have been aware of everything, including his conversation with Superman, and him thereafter ceasing to see the future resulting from his own intentional actions? Unless tachyons are involved, that makes no sense whatsoever. He shouldn't have been confused about any of that, he would have just seen it as inevitable as anything else.
My interpretation. While Superman; standing there is the present about to fight Black Adam and the other villain, ManHattan reported, he faded to black and went back in time and fixed everything “he” changed then boom!, the JSA and others erased come in “the present’ and help Superman face does. The reality was still there. No reality warp or erase of the present universe. Right there on page. That’s what I deciphered. Awareness of him was not erased for Superman on new allies to appear do them being altered from the past. Then he gave his life force to save his planet; a planet not universe. Then he gave his remaining power to a kid he named Clark. Page for page. People only want to imagine that when the page went black that he universally erased the present time like he’s god or something. People only imagine that he saved his “universe” when it wasn’t a universe drawn or written right there on the page but a “planet”. Either way, I love your vids man. Loved when you went off on tangent on the story f Superman. Trust me, I have been in these debates (well not debates for me but facts) and it’s ultimately what I have said in these events. It’s like the world we live in today. Things can exist together in an infinite universe. More space than matter. Everything can exist peacefully. You like Fruity pebbles fine, I like Captain berry crunch. You like Thor, ManHattan, Goku, Hulk, or Thanos, cool, I don’t. I’m older. I grew up on Superman so that’s my character. I still like those guys respectively in there on continuity and universe but my fave is Supes. I don’t watch DBZ for Superman. I watch it for Goku and the rest of the cast. It’s it’s on story! Why compare? Yet and still, men lie, women lie, numbers don’t, Superman a the oldest out the bunch therefore his feats or abundant when comparing. Always the point I try to make in these Superman defamation vids or forums. He the reason the term op exist. To me, there nothing wrong with the human imagination imagining defying the impossible. Shit, we are mites if dust compared to the sheer size of the universe. Probably smaller than that. WebCam ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ your vids my guy. More!

Yo do one about mad Jim Jasper's I know you want to do DC but in case you want to do something in marvel you should do mad jim Jasper's and sorry about before
If Dr Manhattan wanted to remove Superman from the universe, and he can travel and alter time, he should be able to go back prior to Kryptons destruction and change that. Simple.
The Time Trapper has tried many times to erase Superman and his influence on the timeline from history, but he's always failed.(He also consistently can exist in places beyond space and time.) Superman also resisted getting erased from memory and reality by the hands of Mister Mxyzpltk.
Little known facts ; had a small run as a popstar , in his band Eiffel65. Also a performance artist he created the perfect theater group which allowed him to live in the middle of the spotlights with no one noticing . (Blue man Group) And can you spot him doing a movie cameo ? (Smurfs 2) And some rumours even claim he did some blue movies ..... At his lowest he had to do some things he is not proud off Like wrestling (Blue meanie) His nick name used to be Viagra. Because of the colour blue and him being a dick . Last year Halloween he had it easy , doing a avatar costume. And the blue candy that was radio active , was never proven to come from him
he lost his humanity because he can see all time-lines at the same time if you know what is and will be how can you be enthusiastic about it? you'll end up finding it boring
@WebCamParrot First who is really more powerful COIE Anti-monitor and Dr.manhattan? And second If Manhattan is stronger than mxy(5th dimensional being) then is that also mean he is above the 6th dimensional beings like perpetua and her 3 sons?
So to quote TheImaginaryAxis: hes far more powerful than a thing thats infinitely more powerful than a thing thats infinitely more powerful than infinite power, as least
I personally think the Doom Patrol In DDC are the same as the Way version. I just wonder what crazy bs Niles had to convince them to allow him back in for just this one time.

Yooooo love you dude! Keep it upppppp!!! Dropping FIREEEEE 🔥
I love that you put the ligma balls version of rorsach dying
Dr. Manhattan even predicts the collaboration of DC and Marvel in the near future, that's how powerful he is
Not as powerful as Swamp thing
*Superman couldn't even be moved or distorted by Dr manhattan in Orion comics he also couldn't erase superman in doomsday clock ( It shows you how powerful superman actually is plus superman overpowered the ARC angel Zauriel*
Don't forget "temporal photocopier". He can make photo copies so accurate that they literally are the SAME PHOTO!
Now thats OP. 😁 (original photo?)
8:18 this is possibly one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Couldn't see it until I saw it on TV and my wife started laughing her ass off.
;)
Batman who laughs: Hippity hoppiy your power is my property
Did Dr Manhattan say ligma balls? At 8:27
Would you do a video about the powers of Raven from The Teen Titans?
I literally got hooked on the way you say power
Imagine if Doctor Manhattan shows up to the party during the whole conflict with perpetua?
Well we don't know what gonna happen if he shows up there... We never saw Dr. M fight seriously.

4:17 sounds like a profound description of his father's business but... not at all. Idk. The way it was said.
Since when did parrot have an ASMR voice? Id legit pay for 3hrs of Parrot hypnosis...
great way to start the weekend!
In death metal we saw how insanely powerful he really is
U need to update this video
The dark knights series gave a whole another level of scalling for manhattan
I wouldn't say that tachyons "travel backwards in time". No idea why Manhattan would say that, either.
Tachyons are hypothetical particles that travel faster than the speed of light, and are unable to travel slower than it.
Due to relativity and causality this would result in a form of time-travel, but not in the way he's phrasing it.
Also, if he can reconstitute himself any way he pleases, why is he blue? Is that just his favourite colour?
Dr. Manhattan is simply all six infinity stones with clouded vast knowledge and clouded pre-cognition.
The more powerful the character, the weirder their stories. Some of the best comic book character are those how have the least amount of power with the hardest road to walk and highest mountains to climb. I always found Doctor Manhanttan very boring, he is more of an aspect of the Watchman story that a character itself.
Is that the music from the Watchmen movie?! Lol genius!!
So Dr. Manhattan didn't know why his knowledge of the future just goes away at a certain point, even though he should have been aware of everything, including his conversation with Superman, and him thereafter ceasing to see the future resulting from his own intentional actions? Unless tachyons are involved, that makes no sense whatsoever. He shouldn't have been confused about any of that, he would have just seen it as inevitable as anything else.
Dr Manhattan is Powerful but I just wanna say to him
DARKSEID IS.
Not really.
manhattan can one shot him easily

Dr. Manhattan vs Darkseid. Now that would be a fight.
Flash literally said Dr Manhattan was stronger if I’m not mistaken, plus mr mxy is fodder to Manhattan the same mxy who should be above darkseid.
So is the Justice society of america and the legion of superheroes are canon now?
My interpretation. While Superman; standing there is the present about to fight Black Adam and the other villain, ManHattan reported, he faded to black and went back in time and fixed everything “he” changed then boom!, the JSA and others erased come in “the present’ and help Superman face does. The reality was still there. No reality warp or erase of the present universe. Right there on page. That’s what I deciphered. Awareness of him was not erased for Superman on new allies to appear do them being altered from the past. Then he gave his life force to save his planet; a planet not universe. Then he gave his remaining power to a kid he named Clark. Page for page. People only want to imagine that when the page went black that he universally erased the present time like he’s god or something. People only imagine that he saved his “universe” when it wasn’t a universe drawn or written right there on the page but a “planet”.
Either way, I love your vids man. Loved when you went off on tangent on the story f Superman. Trust me, I have been in these debates (well not debates for me but facts) and it’s ultimately what I have said in these events. It’s like the world we live in today. Things can exist together in an infinite universe. More space than matter. Everything can exist peacefully. You like Fruity pebbles fine, I like Captain berry crunch. You like Thor, ManHattan, Goku, Hulk, or Thanos, cool, I don’t. I’m older. I grew up on Superman so that’s my character. I still like those guys respectively in there on continuity and universe but my fave is Supes. I don’t watch DBZ for Superman. I watch it for Goku and the rest of the cast. It’s it’s on story! Why compare? Yet and still, men lie, women lie, numbers don’t, Superman a the oldest out the bunch therefore his feats or abundant when comparing. Always the point I try to make in these Superman defamation vids or forums. He the reason the term op exist. To me, there nothing wrong with the human imagination imagining defying the impossible. Shit, we are mites if dust compared to the sheer size of the universe. Probably smaller than that. WebCam ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ your vids my guy. More!
Ahh it feels good to learn again
Question does he not rate outerversal some one said he rated like omniversal and that dont seem right.
Id like to see a story of clark with Manhattans powers
Excellent!
I love the Phillip Glass in the background
Great content 4 stars
Can u please do Spectre one day? Would really look forward to that.
Out of Doctor Manhattan, Trigon, Mordru and Mxyzptlk, who's the most powerful?
SlenderMan Der Ritter me
Just another tool in the drawer for reboot and plot convenience activities, they could've made a new plot device like Marvel's Hope Summers but naked blue man sells units.
8:26 lmao that comic pannel
Do you take requests
The real question now is:
Can Dr.Manhattan beat Dark Phoenix?
Easy lol
Dr manhattan wipes the floor with ease
Manhattan straigh up one shot Pandora "an eternal"
At that point in time, Pandora is powerful enough to solo all 7 sins "all 7 embodiment of those sins, each and every one of those sins can swallow the DC multiverse"
and the doc just dusted her
those DC's multiversal being to Manhattan is no more than a comic character to a real human being "DC do exist in Watchmen as a comic book company"
Dark Phoenix couldn’t even make a dent on the box office
@@AColonDashSix *OOF

Oh.
Just a random question, can Captain Atom reassemble his body back together like Dr Manhattan?
Yes yes yes pls do a Captain Atom video.. one of the coolest JLA characters
Dude do a video about Superboy prime please
Yo do one about mad Jim Jasper's I know you want to do DC but in case you want to do something in marvel you should do mad jim Jasper's and sorry about before
8:25
"its been 84 years..."
If Dr Manhattan wanted to remove Superman from the universe, and he can travel and alter time, he should be able to go back prior to Kryptons destruction and change that. Simple.
The Time Trapper has tried many times to erase Superman and his influence on the timeline from history, but he's always failed.(He also consistently can exist in places beyond space and time.) Superman also resisted getting erased from memory and reality by the hands of Mister Mxyzpltk.
Doctor manhattan scales to Outerversal
A lot of dc characters scale to that.
@@angellicus1779 yeah
at 10:55 the implication stated is reviled. it is not dr manhattan. but another blue man son of perpetua
Little known facts ; had a small run as a popstar , in his band Eiffel65.
Also a performance artist he created the perfect theater group which allowed him to live in the middle of the spotlights with no one noticing .
(Blue man Group)
And can you spot him doing a movie cameo ?
(Smurfs 2)
And some rumours even claim he did some blue movies .....
At his lowest he had to do some things he is not proud off
Like wrestling
(Blue meanie)
His nick name used to be Viagra.
Because of the colour blue and him being a dick .
Last year Halloween he had it easy , doing a avatar costume.
And the blue candy that was radio active , was never proven to come from him
Who do you think would win between Ben 10 with all his aliens against Darkseid (true form) or his most powerful avatar
David Ogundipe Ben ten ain’t shit lol
Alien x overrated as hell
alien x is strong but he doesnt compare to darkseid
Considering hes bigger than an infinite number of universes I'd say Darkseid
Darkseid would make ben10 his slave.
Then butffuck him to death.
Darkseid is a new god beyond ben10
8:24 those text boxes seem legit
he lost his humanity because he can see all time-lines at the same time if you know what is and will be how can you be enthusiastic about it? you'll end up finding it boring
I wish they got DC/Vertigo Lucifer Morningstar and Superman meet up on the comics...
But now the darkest knight showed a lot more with Dr Manhattan' powers
@WebCamParrot First who is really more powerful COIE Anti-monitor and Dr.manhattan?
And second If Manhattan is stronger than mxy(5th dimensional being) then is that also mean he is above the 6th dimensional beings like perpetua and her 3 sons?
Akatsuki ranking!!!
Nice
So to quote TheImaginaryAxis: hes far more powerful than a thing thats infinitely more powerful than a thing thats infinitely more powerful than infinite power, as least
Was the drummer for blue man group.
Still waiting for that bobobo-bo bo-bobo video you mentioned awhile back
ahh i love the song resonance
I personally think the Doom Patrol In DDC are the same as the Way version. I just wonder what crazy bs Niles had to convince them to allow him back in for just this one time.
